Selling contracts for American food across Asia
Additional Information
Visiting a country is thrilling to be driven everywhere, watch the bands and performances, and enjoy the dinners every night but does not allow for a deep and accurate understanding of the people. They often will not express themselves honestly until getting to know you for quite some time. This includes the two-month vacations, all over Europe and Asia, sight-seeing. Most often, the complete interactions held are talking with servers, resort staff, and shopkeepers (in each case selling items and looking to receive cash payments from you), not meeting the real families, and spending long periods with them.
Living in a country for at least one year often begins to reveal the truth of how they feel about America and the world, what their real customs are - and troubles. Dignitaries flying into 100+ countries most often completely miss the truth, issues, and practical concerns of an entire race living there. Their "10-day visit" to the country reveals high-level talks only, and often, agreements. Yet they never came to know the real people, nation, or families.
After two years, Marti received his first invitation visit inside a Japanese home. Behind the iron veil, it is one of the highest honors to be asked to visit a private residence and eat a meal. Due to his successes with the Japanese public, in representing American interests as the Commander Submarine Group 7 and Commander TaskForce 54 Public Affairs Officer (PAO), he was later elevated to the position of PAO. When Admiral Joseph J. Krol, Jr. raised him, Chief Mongiello mentioned, "but this is the position of a commissioned officer." The Admiral stated, "you have deeply impressed the Japanese people, numerous business leaders in this country, and the government leaders - Marti, you've got the job."
Marti soon became highly sought after to negotiate large contracts as a portion of 2.6 billion USD in food purchases across that half of the world. As one of eight TOP CHEFS responsible for 95 million meals per year and 6400 chefs, he often wore a blue ball cap with gold lettering on its bill in capital letters, BOTTOM CHEF. This stirred up quite a dustball of questions from fellow chefs, owners, and restaurateurs.
As Marti gave presentations in Singapore, Guam, Japan, South Korea, and many other locations, his responsibilities increased until being promoted to TOP CHEF of the entire Pacific Fleet with 37 nuclear submarines and several ships under him on half of the earth. Marti was well recognized as a contracting expert and negotiator. His greatest strength always has been a huge, generous presence as an LEO. Yet his loving and respectful ways of learning a country's language, all mannerisms, becoming their customs and unique bodily movements, as well as eating and cooking their favorite dishes, score very high points. Marti teaches to understand you must live with the lower and middle class of that country - one cannot succeed in a lasting arrangement only brokered via high-level cabinet talks. It would be best if you learned their religion and language first - your deal will come after. Given the multi-billion dollar responsibilities he held in his young 30's - and American interests as a Public Affairs Officer, many have asked how he was so successful. Marti often states, "by not acting like a totalitarian invader, master and police officer on earth. I study all of their customs, bowing, and finger movements at times for up to two years. I cannot tell you how many times what Americans have done with their fingers that has ruined a deal. And we have sent many cowboys and John Wayne folks back home who could not bring themselves to bow, kneel, or more. They were a disgrace and acted loud and ruined hundred-billion dollar deals that I had to fix and restart."

Negotiations with Prime Minister Hashimoto
Marti felt very fortunate to cook for Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto while facilitating talks between America and Japan. He reflected on it with prayers when visiting with Chef Stormy at the famed Jojoji Temple in Tokyo.
This is the same temple that president and first lady Delia Grant planted a small sapling of a pine tree. Today, it is a large tree.
Due to this honor, Chefs Marti and Stormy were also welcomed to Katsunuma Wine Region west of Japan as special guests of the International Food Service Executives Association (IFSEA).
They were featured with IFSEA Tokyo President Mitsumi Ubukata for photos inside the VIP lounge of All Japan Chefs Association, which Marti is a LIFE member of in WACS.

- 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
- A hot skillet that is lightly sprayed with Pam or greased somehow
Mix all ingredients on a large wooden board and knead until well mixed using a light amount of flour to avoid getting completely sticky. Then, cover two balls of dough with Saran Wrap or plastic wrap. Allow to grow for 20 minutes or so. They will get puffy.
Then roll ten balls into pancakes and griddle fry them on a flat top, pan, or, like in India, on the large coals or a metal sheet. You can use Pam spray (unflavored or Olive Oil flavored) to keep it from sticking and flip it to check for brown circular spots.
We love to buy and prepare some Jyoti Basmati Supreme Rice and then to grill or saute Fresh Colorado Lamb. Once the lamb is seared we then simmer it in Maya Kaimal's Butter Masala Sauce, which we found at Ingles Markets.

Pumpkin lovers, spasm! Let me see you start to writhe on the floor over even more Pumpkin in your life! Did you know that Pumpkin is the number one aphrodisiac on earth? Even higher than cherry or chocolate?
- 2 medium Yellow Onions
- 1 1/2 # Red Pumpkin (all bhopla)

- 2 Bay Leaves
- 8 to 10 Peppercorns
- Salt to your tastes in life
- 1/2 t White Pepper powder
- 2 t Lemon Juice
- 1/4 C Fresh Cream
We peel and slice the onions and then peel and slice the pumpkin into small pieces and saute both in the butter in a big pan getting some browning going - but not too much. Then add chicken or vegetable stock to cover, cook until soft and done. Add your bay leaves and peppercorns to the big pan of stock and vegetables.
Next, strain with a mesh strainer and reserve the stock. Puree the vegetables with an immersion blender and some stock (enough to be able to puree with) and then add more stock to achieve your desired consistency. We go for a chowder thickness - but to each person their own and their own joy! Stir in the Lemon Juice.
Serve hot and garnished with cream.

1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
You are welcome to take any of the classes individually if you like - or all twelve in the semester. They are $99.00 each, and payment can be made at the main Culinary Academy page here. If you miss a class, you can watch the video recording later!
Building off of the India America White House State Dinners and visits exhibit of "INDIA & ITS FINE FOODS IN THE WHITE HOUSE 2027-2037" showcased by The United States Presidential Culinary Museum, we embarked on learning and teaching Indian classes. Our chefs love the food so much! The study of Indian food and cookery is a rich exploration of the diverse culinary traditions that have evolved over centuries across the Indian subcontinent. Rooted in a deep cultural tapestry, Indian cuisine is characterized by various flavors, aromas, and techniques that vary regionally. The use of aromatic spices, herbs, and diverse cooking methods distinguishes Indian cooking, with dishes ranging from the fiery curries of the South to the delicate kebabs of the North. The cuisine reflects the country's historical, geographical, and cultural diversity, with influences from ancient Ayurvedic principles and trade routes that introduced new ingredients. Studying Indian food involves delving into the art of blending spices, understanding the significance of rituals in meal preparation, and appreciating the communal nature of dining. From street food to elaborate feasts, the study of Indian cookery offers a fascinating journey through the flavors and traditions that define this culinary tapestry. This class provides a small slice of India and cannot state it is a four-year titan compendium of all Indian cuisine. It also steers away from many friend foods like Puris (Poori) Deep-Fried Puffed Bread and other deep frying techniques heavy in saturated fats or oil consumption. It's a fun-filled, joyous curriculum of tasty treats!

CLASS FORMAT: Classes will be conducted in the streaming format from the Campus using Zoom Software or always in-person - it is your choice. The final examination is 150-questions long and will be given to you on day one so that you will know what we will teach. We are not here to trick students.
Fun cooking also requires that students be prepared and actively involved (communication) in class discussions. This format allows for maximum student involvement and interest. However, all students must be prepared for each class to make this form of learning work. My role as your professor is to ask questions that will help you generate ideas that lead to beautiful understanding.
Discussion Board Interactive Posts (IP) will be used throughout the course that will enable students to share ideas with other class members in order to enhance the learning experience of all. Discussion Board questions will be based on reading material from the textbook, assigned journal articles, and other web-based material. All Assignments will be posted on the school site and video or audio responses are welcomed. Typing is not required.
Attendance/Participation: Attendance will be taken for all scheduled lectures. Assignment and Exam materials will be presented in classes that are not covered in the chapter slides and text. It is important for all students to participate in these weekly sessions to stay current on all of the material covered each week. If students miss a class, it is recommended that they contact a classmate or team member to obtain all the pertinent details of missed work or watch the video replay. Students are allowed 7 “no-fault” absences for any reason; sports meetings, illness, family/personal issues, etc. After 7 absences, students will not receive credit for the course as 25% of the scheduled class meetings will have been missed.
Participation (Note: Your professor reserves the right to influence your final grade based on in-class performance.)
Class participation is an important element of case discussion. Learning depends heavily upon thorough and lively participation. The primary emphasis should be on quality participation, not quantity. The quality of participation is reflected from a careful reading of studies and assigned material, thoughtful reflection, and clear and concise comments. It is particularly important that your comments fit into and build on previous comments. This requires that we all listen carefully to each other.
Class participation will be judged on the basis of quality and consistency of effort on a daily basis. Attendance is not participation. Each student can ascertain the adequacy of his/her participation by an occasional discussion with your professor. However, careful self-monitoring using the following criteria for effective classroom participation may be useful:
· Do comments generate discussion, or do they tend to be ignored by others?
· Do others appear confused when the participant makes a point?
· Are others left with a “so what” feeling, or does the discussant reach a conclusion that is clearly understood and appreciated?
· Do comments develop on evidence from the assignment, or do they just relate what everyone already knows?
· Are participants able to clarify important aspects of previous comments and relate them to the problems and topics under discussion?
· Do comments distinguish among different kinds of data – facts, opinions, beliefs, and theories – in their construction?
Your professor expects you to be prepared and actively involved in each class. Since students are frequently called upon when their hands are not raised, you should let the professor know before the start of class if some emergency has made it impossible for you to be adequately prepared for the class. Naturally, there are some students who do not feel comfortable participating verbally in the classroom. We should all try to make the classroom atmosphere as congenial as possible to assist our colleagues in the participation process and that includes having fun! Students are encouraged to meet regularly outside of class to discuss assignments before the class activity. Missed classes could severely affect your performance in the class. There is NO WAY TO MAKE UP “MISSED” PARTICIPATION OPPORTUNITIES. Check your e-mail daily, please. Your professor will use this to communicate with the class or you individually as necessary.
Assignment Completion/Late Policy: Please complete and submit work by the dates assigned. All due dates are in the course calendar and will be posted in Canvas. Late assignments, posts will be deducted one letter grade for each day late, after 3 days late, assignments will not be will result in a grade of 0.

Those caught cheating on tests or other course-assigned projects will be turned into the Academic Affairs office per institutional policy.
Integrity Policy: A fundamental purpose of a liberal education is its attempt to cultivate in the student a sense of honor and high principles pertaining especially to academics, but extending to all areas of life. An inherent feature of is its commitment to an atmosphere of integrity and ethical conduct. As a student, I accept as my personal responsibility the vigorous maintenance of honesty, truth, fairness, civility, and concern for others.
My devotion to integrity demands that I will not cheat in academic work and that I adhere to the established and required community code of conduct. I accept the responsibility for upholding the established standards against those who would violate them. And I understand and accept the consequences of infracting upon or assisting others in infracting upon this code. In addition to and beyond the requirements of any code or law, I affirm my own commitment to personal honor and integrity in all matters large and small. Even though the idea of honor is an abstract one, by implementing this ideal, I join the men and women in making the concept of honor a reality.
